Lollipop Day, July 20, 2015

Lollipop Day (July 20, 2015) There is a day for everything; there’s little that gets by. We keep a month for breakfast prunes; a day for pumpkin pie. Homemade soup can have its day and pickles get their chance, but of the days we mark each year, one makes me sing and dance. The lollipop will do that gig from small up to grotesque. You’ll find them in the circus tents and at the banker’s desk. This sweet confectionary gem will make a child’s eyes gleam; the middle aged and old ones will enjoy it too, it seems. So on this day the lollipop will give your mouth a pucker. Now, go ahead, yes, do enjoy this day we give to suckers!
